Well, I guess 150 miles is a long distance... if you have to walk it.

I spoke with Paul today. The Cobra is near Detroit Mi. The quickest way to see the car, it's on Craigslist out of said area. mileage is around 22K. Is selling for a older friend. So we know the reasoning for the sale, ingress, and egress. He said, his friend is the the only owner, car was built 1982, early, early ERA? Believed to be car 21??? You ERA guy's can add more?

Assuming there's nothing mechanically wrong with the car, that's a very nice deal.

I'm thinking I'd want to peel off a few dozen stickers to see if any are hiding severe road rash.

Notice the bolt on wheels?

What a deal for “as close as it gets.”

It’s a “cream puff.”

I was thinking the same thing about the stickers until I started seeing them everywhere. Couple hours with a blow dryer and it will do wonders...even if there are scratches underneath!

Bolt on wheels are very common on these older cars. Those are PS Engineering wheels which are very light and well made. MUCH lighter than the Halibrand pin drives on my current car. Lacking the "cool" factor though.

Could be a great driver for someone to enjoy without obsessing over it.

I would say the price is right if everything is in good shape. it's a small block car and not many 427 ERAs were built with small blocks so that's going to take it down a peg.
